So here's the deal. My router assigns ip addresses starting from 192.168.0.50. I have a couple of computers running ubuntu which i want the router to assign 192.168.0.50 and 192.168.0.51 every time they request for an ip address. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.:)

You have a few options.

1) DHCP reservations on your router. Some routers have this look around in the settings.

2) I'm pretty sure if you go to networking manager you can set a manual ip, but still be on DHCP. I mostly use cli.

3) Set a staic ip with this guide
